Always too cloudy for sunbathing?

I don’t know how recent this thread is but I have a solution! My mermaid chic could never sunbathe by me clicking on the water because it was “too cloudy” all the time. I bought a chair to try sunbathing in and some pool floats and they both worked for me

This still hasn't been fixed.

I have the same problem. I play with MCCC where I changed the speed of the game (slower). Could that be the reason for the problem? If I take that Mod out, it is night in my game - and therefore much too dark to sunbathe ...
